History

Marshal Reginald Windsor was a legendary knight and commander in his best days. With nerves of thorium, wielding the epic hammer Ironfoe, he has become a living legend in Stormwind. Later he was assigned a post of commanding officer of Alliance forces in Burning Steppes.

As threats of Blackrock orcs grew, he sent agents to Blackrock Mountain to investigate. While traveling with the information they gathered, he was ambushed by a Dark Iron raiding party. Only one of his men, Ragged John, escaped to tell the tale. Marshal Windsor was captured and imprisoned, his hammer taken by the Emperor, Dagran Thaurissan, and the precious information seemed lost.

Eventually, however, he was rescued by Varian Wrynn, Broll Bearmantle, Valeera Sanguinar, and Thargas Anvilmar. He revealed to them the dark secret that he learned while stationed in the Burning Steppes: that the court of Stormwind had been infiltrated by the black dragon Onyxia, in the guise of Lady Katrana Prestor. Reginald Windsor accompanied the four to Stormwind and confronted her, revealing her true form within Stormwind Keep. With her plans unraveling and her disguise ruined, she incinerated Windsor and escaped to her lair.

Prior to the release of Wrath of the Lich King, Allianceplayer characters could discover his notes, scattered among major individuals of Shadowforge City. Returning his notes restores Windsor's hopes, and the player escorts him to freedom. Returning to Stormwind, Windsor is greeted as a hero, despite orders from Lady Katrana Prestor for his arrest. Windsor proceeds to Stormwind Keep to reveal Katrana's true identity as Lady Onyxia before being slain by her.
